Lord of the Mysteries Chapter Summary 721-735

Chapter 721 – Klein’s Guidance

Frank Lee busies himself writing a letter to Gehrman Sparrow, enthusiastically detailing his recent breakthrough in cultivating a new breed of mushrooms using the flesh and blood of a Rose Bishop. He also mentions his attempts to summon a messenger, following the ritual Klein had described to him. The ritual proves successful, and Reinette Tinekerr appears, though her enigmatic behavior leaves Frank both startled and impressed. Meanwhile, Cattleya senses an illusory doll in Frank’s room, sparking a cryptic connection to the mysterious Ancient Bane.

Klein returns to the real world, pondering his next move as he considers the recent developments in Bayam. With the pirates likely in hiding, he decides to head to Conant City, Davy Raymond’s hometown, to fulfill his promise to the Red Glove and potentially uncover new leads. His thoughts are interrupted when Reinette Tinekerr reappears, delivering a letter that leaves Klein both alarmed and intrigued.

As Reinette Tinekerr waits silently for a response, Klein’s eyes widen as he reads the letter’s contents, his thoughts racing with the implications of Frank’s discovery and the mysterious forces at play. With the stakes rising, Klein’s next move will be crucial in unraveling the secrets of the book world and its enigmatic characters.

Chapter 722 – An Unpeaceful Night

Klein, awaiting his fake identification and tickets, sips on a cup of Zarhar at the bar, eavesdropping on a heated discussion about Silver Coin Viper Oder’s mysterious purchase of ten tickets. Rumors swirl around Oder’s true intentions, with some speculating he’s being pursued by someone. As the patrons debate, Klein remains a silent observer, occasionally glancing at the wall clock, hoping time passes quickly.

Suddenly, the door bursts open, and five strangers, likely from MI9, storm into the bar, searching for Oder. Their intimidating demeanor and revolvers silence the crowd, and they begin questioning the patrons, demanding to know Oder’s whereabouts. Klein keeps a low profile, observing the commotion, and even helps Deniel, the black marketer, regain his balance after being shoved by one of the intruders.

As the MI9 agents scatter, Klein ponders the reasons behind their pursuit of Oder, eliminating the possibility of an act against Queen Mystic. The bar eventually returns to its lively atmosphere, but Klein remains intrigued, wondering what Oder has done to warrant such attention and what implications this has for the mysterious forces at play.

Chapter 723 – Another Good Deed Today

Klein, still intrigued by the sudden interest in Silver Coin Viper Oder, decides to take matters into his own hands. He uses a radio transceiver to intercept a telegram from Admiral of Blood’s crew, discovering that Turani von Helmosuin is being controlled by the Rose School of Thought. The telegram reveals a meeting location at 32 Black Pepper Avenue, and Klein infers that Helmosuin and Oder might be hiding there.

Using his divination abilities, Klein confirms the location and discovers that Helmosuin is hiding in an underground hall with a massive, complicated machine. He sees an elder scientist, Turani von Helmosuin, pacing in front of the machine, completely absorbed in his work. Klein is now faced with the dilemma of what to do with this newfound information, knowing that handing it over to the Loen military or the Church of Storms might not be the best option.

Klein decides to take a bold approach, opting to make the existence and location of Helmosuin public knowledge to the Loen Kingdom military and the Churches. He believes this will ensure that Helmosuin’s capabilities are used for the greater good, rather than falling into the wrong hands. With a smile, Klein readies himself to spread the news, using his powers to reach a wider audience than ever before.

Chapter 724 – The True Meaning Behind the Warning

Klein’s encounter with Turani von Helmosuin, aka Orange Light Hilarion, reveals the mysterious scientist’s awareness of Klein’s unique trait, connected to the gray fog above the spirit world. Helmosuin explains that high-level creatures and deities with certain authorities can detect this trait, which Klein realizes is linked to his augmentation by the gray fog. As their conversation unfolds, Helmosuin hints at his own motivations, warning Klein about the dangers of the Mother Tree of Desire and its connection to the apocalypse.

Klein’s mind races with questions and theories, trying to unravel the mysteries of the gray fog, the great ruler above the spirit world, and his own connection to them. He ponders the possibility of being a chosen oracle and the significance of his own pathway, the Seer, which might hold the key to entering the divine kingdom.

As Helmosuin departs, Klein is left to grapple with the warnings and revelations, aware of the extreme danger lurking around him. With the Mother Tree of Desire and the Rose School of Thought on his radar, Klein knows he must tread carefully, hiding and hoping to advance to Sequence 4 and become a demigod to counter the threats.

Chapter 725 – Morning

Klein, still reeling from his encounter with Turani von Helmosuin, contemplates his next move, knowing he must lie low and avoid detection by the Mother Tree of Desire and its believers. He decides to summon an undersea creature to escape Bayam, hoping to evade their gaze. However, his plans are interrupted by a mysterious signal from the radio transceiver, which reads “I see you,” sending a chill down his spine.

Meanwhile, in a hidden basement, Silver Coin Viper Oder meets with Admiral of Blood, Senor, to discuss the failure to protect Helmosuin’s hiding place. Senor, a ruthless pirate admiral, suspects that another faction has obtained their codebook and is monitoring radio transmissions. He tasks Oder with sending a response, saying “I can see you,” to unsettle the unknown listener.

As Oder departs, Senor turns his attention to a gruesome altar, where a ritual has been performed to contact a deity, Lord Shanks. The curtains around the altar seem to come to life, and a translucent figure appears, its gaze fixed on the candlelight. The atmosphere is tense, with Senor awaiting a response from the deity, as the candle’s flame changes colors, corresponding to the desires of observers.

Chapter 726 – Preparations Are Very Important

Klein’s sense of unease intensifies as he feels like every object around him wants him dead. Suddenly, a strange web of paper and fragments lunges at him, and his body collapses into a paper figurine. As the attack unfolds, Klein realizes his enemy is likely a demigod from the Rose School of Thought, an opponent he currently can’t defend against.

In quick succession, Klein’s clothes and accessories bind him, and paper figurines cover his face, making it hard to breathe. With his combat experience, Klein remains calm and uses his fingers to snap and ignite the flames, breaking free from his restraints. However, the silent and deadly attacks continue, forcing Klein to think on his feet to survive.

As the icicle-like arrow speeds towards him, Klein’s instincts trigger, but it’s too late to dodge. His clothes still impede his movement, and the arrow strikes his chest. Fortunately, the book “Groselle’s Travels” takes the hit, protecting him. Klein’s prior preparations, including hiding the book and storing the corrupted True Creator’s influence, might just give him an edge in this desperate battle.

Chapter 727 – Lucky One

Klein’s battle intensifies as he faces off against Admiral of Blood Senor, a Sequence 5 Wraith and demigod from the Rose School of Thought. Senor’s abilities are formidable, and Klein realizes he must be cautious, using his combat experience to stay one step ahead. As the fight unfolds, Klein uses his revolver, Death Knell, to create an opening, but Senor’s agility allows him to dodge and counterattack.

As the chase continues, Klein learns that Senor’s Wraith abilities require a certain range to possess someone’s body, and he begins to adapt his strategy. When Senor slows down, Klein seizes the opportunity to use his Devil language to slow him down further. With Senor momentarily stunned, Klein readies his attack, aiming for Senor’s weak point above his throat.

Just as Klein fires his revolver, Senor is pulled to safety by an unseen force, and a golden flame erupts from his neck as he unleashes a deafening Shriek that disrupts Klein’s concentration. Formless souls begin to converge on Senor, and Klein’s eyes are met with the image of a pale man in a red coat and triangular hat, as his body is engulfed in scarlet flames.

Chapter 728 – Triple Combo

Senor unleashes another deafening Shriek, causing Klein to momentarily pause, but he’s able to quickly recover due to his resistance and Bribe. Klein pretends to be dazed, waiting for Senor to fall into his trap. As Senor’s aura deepens, Klein reveals his plan, using Creeping Hunger to disrupt Senor’s possession and turning the environment into a frozen, mirror-like surface. With a word in the Devil language, Klein slows Senor down, freezing him in place.

Klein seizes the opportunity to use Interrogator’s Psychic Piercing, targeting Senor’s Spirit Body while he’s still frozen. Senor’s mind is pierced, and he temporarily loses reason. As Senor tries to regain his composure, Klein repeatedly slows him down, using his attacks to keep Senor trapped and helpless.

As Klein gains control over Senor’s Spirit Body Threads, he begins to walk towards him, deepening his control. Senor’s thoughts slow down, and a translucent icicle forms in front of him, signaling his impending doom. With Klein’s grip on Senor’s threads tightening, the outcome of their battle hangs in the balance.

Chapter 729 – Chaos

As the forest withers, a thick bolt of silver lightning strikes, encasing the black arm in a cage, and dark clouds converge to form a face-like entity. In Bayam City, Sea King Jahn Kottman takes action, ordering the Mandated Punishers to activate Sealed Artifacts, and Reinette Tinekerr is forced out of the void, growing to the size of a gothic castle as she engages in combat with the wrinkled infant. Meanwhile, Klein grapples with the side effects of using Death Knell, experiencing a fear of the dark, as he desperately closes his eyes and injects his spirituality into Groselle’s Travels.

Klein grasps the severity of the situation, realizing the entity descending is likely an angel, stronger than Sea King, but seemingly unable to appear directly. He decides to flee, but knows hasty retreat would be dangerous, and instead chooses to create more trouble for the angel, using Tinder corrupted by the True Creator and the Numinous Episcopate copper whistle to send a message. As he makes his escape, Klein throws the copper whistle towards the source of danger, handing a white feather to the messenger and rushing towards the cliff, keeping his head down.

In the chaos, Klein discovers Admiral of Blood Senor has vanished, leaving behind only a few drops of dark red blood with a dark-green tint on Groselle’s Travels. Klein fears the angel and saint might gain Admiral of Blood’s help to pursue him, but he can’t abandon the book, deciding to resolve this risk by entering with his Spirit Body later. He grabs a handful of soil with Senor’s blood to locate him later, as he continues his desperate escape.

Chapter 730 – andling the Latent Risk

As Cardinal Archbishop Sea King Jahn Kottman surveys the desolate forest, he recalls the recent battle and the angel from the Rose School of Thought retreating with its injured partner. The angel’s arm, once encased in a cage, now bears sparse white feathers. Meanwhile, Klein Moretti, the adventurer who killed a Sequence 5 Desire Apostle, has escaped the scene, leaving behind a few clues for Sea King to ponder.

On a distant island, Klein encounters Azik, who senses the connection to the Numinous Episcopate whistle and its Artificial Death Project. Azik takes the white feathers, a byproduct of the project, and nods in understanding. He warns Klein to lay low in cities like Backlund or Trier, where the Rose School of Thought’s influence is limited, and hints at a future trip to the Berserk Sea or Southern Continent.

As Azik departs, Klein breathes a sigh of relief, grateful that Azik hasn’t asked about his conflict with the Rose School of Thought. Instead, he inquires about the Mother Tree of Desire, only to be met with Azik’s ignorance on the subject. The mystery deepens, and Klein’s journey is far from over.

Chapter 731 – Gains

As Klein masters the control of Senor’s marionette, he discovers the challenges of hiding its abnormalities from other Marionettists and the risks of using it as a shield. To mitigate these risks, Klein plans to “cleanse” the Wraith in the gray fog and seal it with a 3-layered interference effect, making it difficult for the Rose School of Thought to track him. He also reflects on the Mother Tree of Desire’s control over its organization members, realizing that as long as he doesn’t attempt to divine its secrets, he can use the marionette without triggering any problems.

Klein uses Azik’s copper whistle to test the marionette, and after confirming its authenticity, he surveys the area and picks up the silver necklace. He takes four steps counterclockwise, chanting an incantation, and returns to the real world. The copper whistle doesn’t react abnormally, indicating no latent problems with the marionette. Klein then uses the marionette to rummage through Senor’s pockets, finding a substantial amount of cash and 13 gold coins.

As Klein contemplates cashing out the marionette on the black market, he realizes the risks involved and decides to hold off. Instead, he divines the origins and usage of the silver necklace, discovering it came from a Sequence 5 Winner from the Life School of Thought. With this new information, Klein is one step closer to unraveling the mysteries of the mysterious world he’s entangled in.

Chapter 732 – Destination

Klein, wearing a common face in the Loen Kingdom, visits 67 Red Indus Street in Conant City, seeking out Ma’am Neelu, the daughter of Derrick Raymond, the Nightmare he had released from Creeping Hunger. He claims to be a friend of her father, and Neelu, curious but wary, invites him in, accompanied by her husband. As they sit down, Klein delivers the message her father had entrusted to him, revealing Derrick’s true identity as a Red Glove from the Nighthawks and his regret for not being able to spend time with Neelu while she grew up.

Neelu listens intently, her emotions masked, as Klein shares her father’s words, including his apology for not being there for her and his hope for her to find happiness and start a family. When Klein finishes, Neelu’s composure begins to crack, and she struggles to process her emotions. As Klein prepares to leave, Neelu asks him what kind of person she thinks her father was, and Klein replies with a warm smile, “A guardian.”

With his mission accomplished, Klein departs, leaving behind Neelu’s restrained sobs. As he exits the borough, he enters a cathedral of the Evernight Goddess, his next move unclear.

Chapter 733 – The Return

As Klein observes the streets of Backlund from his hotel window, he’s pleased to see the bicycles he invested in and promoted have become a common sight, despite the rain and fog. The Backlund Bike Company has done an excellent job advertising and targeting the right audience, and Klein thinks a raincoat would be the next logical step. He’s currently residing in a high-end hotel in the Hillston Borough, adopting the persona of Dwayne Dantès, a mysterious tycoon and believer of the Evernight Goddess.

As Dwayne Dantès, Klein aims to expand his social circle, make investments, and potentially obtain an aristocratic title. This persona allows him to interact with middle-upper-class individuals, including military officers and bishops, while continuing his investigations into the Great Smog of Backlund. However, this identity also puts him at risk of being noticed by the Nighthawks and Mandated Punishers, necessitating a second layer to his identity.

Klein’s elaborate plan involves creating a backstory for Dwayne Dantès as an adventurer who amassed wealth in the Southern Continent’s East and West Balam, subsequently returning to Desi Bay to forge a new identity. He’s left subtle clues in Conant City to support this narrative, which should fool most routine background inspections. But if needed, he has a third identity layer prepared – that of a cheat who’s taken anti-divination measures, which would allow him to exit the scene without drawing excessive attention.

Chapter 734 – Old Friends

Klein, as Sherlock Moriarty, pays a visit to Isengard Stanton, a Sequence 7 believer of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, in Hillston Borough. Isengard warmly welcomes him, relieved that Sherlock has returned safely. As they chat, Klein reveals his intention to sell his 10% shares in the Backlund Bike Company, which surprises Isengard due to the bike’s promising future. However, Klein convinces him that the shares’ value lies in their future potential, and Isengard agrees to help him sell the shares at a favorable price.

As they discuss the sale, Klein showcases his business acumen, impressing Isengard, who suggests that Sherlock should be involved in the business world. Klein admits that he’s in dire need of a large sum of money, but Isengard is willing to help him. They agree to use public notices in newspapers to facilitate the sale and communicate about the deal.

With Isengard’s assistance, Klein takes another step in expanding his social circle and achieving his goals as Dwayne Dantès, a mysterious tycoon and believer of the Evernight Goddess. Meanwhile, Klein’s elaborate identity layers continue to shield his true identity from potential threats, keeping him one step ahead in the game of cat and mouse.

Chapter 735 – Another Visit

As Klein converses with Sharron, he inquires about various high-sequence Beyonders and events, showcasing his connection to the mysterious world. He asks about a Prisoner pathway Beyonder who can control lifeless objects, and Sharron reveals the name “Puppet” and its demigod, Shanks. Klein also mentions Zatwen, and Sharron confirms his involvement with the Naturism Sect’s leader.

Klein’s inquiries lead to discussions about the Rose School of Thought, a secret organization with a thousand-year history. Sharron shares her knowledge, revealing that they have around five saints, two to three angels, and Grade 0 Sealed Artifacts. Klein’s questions eventually transition to his recent near-death experience, where he encountered the Mother Tree of Desire and the Rose School of Thought’s ambush. Sharron’s rare emotional reaction hints at her connection to the topic.

Sharroninform Klein about the destruction of Williams Street by the Nighthawks and Machinery Hivemind two months prior. Klein ponders the circumstances, suspecting a connection to Baronet Pound’s demise. He asks about the current situation, and Sharron describes the area’s high-rise buildings and lack of surveillance. Klein proposes exploring the site together, mindful of their unwritten agreement.
